My 10 Favorite Movies

Hello all!
 I was thinking today, about movies. The best of movies that happen to be my favorites. :) So I thought perhaps I would share them with you! Here is a list of my current favorite movies!




1. The Avengers
One of the best movies of 2012. By far. I don't really ever get tired of watching it. And I can't ever decide on a favorite character...I love them all...

Breathing...

Have you ever been just laying in your bed, the world is silent and all of a sudden, you hear breathing?

If that's never happened to you, you have never known fear.

I was just laying in bed, trying to get to sleep. It was late, midnight to be exact.

The world was quiet, I couldn't hear a sound aside from my own breathing.

When all of a sudden...clear as day, breathing. It sounded human. Ridiculously human.

What To Do When Your Computer Is Slow

I'm sure you've all had this problem. You finally get all your chores done and you are going to reward yourself with some pinterest or Facebook time. (Or maybe you aren't done, in which case, why are you reading this?? Go do the dishes!)

But when you get to the computer, you find it in a very nasty mood. It moves about as slow as a turtle through a pit of maple syrup.

It's happened to me more times than I can count so I have composed a step by step list of things to do in this situation.

Alone Time

I have been sitting in my room for the past 3 hours.

You may call me crazy. Or you may understand.

See, I'm not mad, sad, or annoyed with people as you may think.

I just craved alone time.


Chased By A Minotaur

So I was driving to my best friend's house yesterday. It was the first time I'd driven there by myself and I was excited.

On this particular trip, I was being followed rather closely by an annoying fellow driver. Naturally, I began to imagine they were following me. It was only logical right?

Mulan

You know what's a fantastic movie? Disney's Mulan. One of my all time favorites!

"If I was my real size, your cow here *points at horse and horse whinnies in indignation* would die of fright. Down Bessie!"

"They're disgusting..."
"No, they're men! And you're gonna have to act just like 'em to fit in."
"I don't think I can do this..."

"Did you see those Hun? They popped out of the snow! Like daisies!"


My Novel!

Hello!

If you'll notice, I added another page link up there ^ (You can click here if you would rather) When you click it, it will take you to an entire page devoted to my half-finished novel! It's called "To Save The Lost". It's been my National Novel Writing Month project for two years now. 

(If you are unfamiliar with "NaNoWriMo", it's during the month of November and thousands of writers from all over get together on this website to write a novel in a month. The website for teenagers is here. It's a fantastic experience and I thoroughly enjoy it! Although I've been working on the same novel for two years now...)

Here is a summary I wrote for it: 10 Year old Ria Golden wing, Crown Princess of Arinsia, waited weeks to hear word from her missing father. Finally, word came that his party had been attacked and he hadnt been seen since. Heartbroken, Ria went through the next few years in a daze. Now, at age 18 Ria gets word her father is still alive! Her elation is shortlived however when she hears where he is. The dungeons of Baros. Right in the middle of the Vultures castle in Rak-ar, the evil land. But when Ria befriends a member of an enemy family who is loyal to her, she sets out to free her father from long imprisonment, before it's too late.

Anyway, I would love it if you took a peek! :) 

Penguins

So, Ive been thinking a lot recently. ( Not usually a good sign)

As far as happiness goes, people can't just say: "Okay, Im going to be happy now."

They need something to influence their mood. Something interesting and almost guaranteed to bring a good mood or a happy thought or even a smile, however brief a time it may stay.

Which brings me to my next point.

3am

You may be wondering why in the world I'm up at 3 in the morning. The answer: I have absolutely no idea. I went to bed at a reasonably decent hour. (Which was probably mistake #1)

I layed in bed for a while, thinking about my day and the things that had happened. But I got bored really quickly. It was obvious I wouldn't sleep for a while so I decided to browse the Internet. (Mistake #2) I became so engrossed that the next thing I knew it was well past midnight.

So then I thought: "This is rubbish. I'll never sleep if I keep on this way." (Yes, I think in a British accent) So I decided I really needed to sleep. But obviously, my brain had other ideas. "Time to turn completely ADHD!" Was the curse I inflicted on myself. "Rainbows are pretty! I love jelly beans! Umbrellas need to all be multi-colored. Our country needs to learn proper english..." This is essentially how my brain is functioning.

And so here I sit. Writing about my insomnia. Which I just realized is probably due to the Mountain Dew I drank with my supper...*facepalm*

Mystery=solved!
Beth=Sleep-deprived.

Goodnight everyone! (I suppose good morning is more appropriate...)

Hello all!

Hello! I just wanted to tell you all the purpose of this new blog of mine! I will be using it mostly to post short stories, poems, and chapters of a novel I'm in the process of writing. But I also will be popping in for some musings, observations I've made, information and updates on my summer missions adventures, and anything else that may tickle my fancy at the time! :)
Thank you for your time! Have a fantastic day! :)
